I have told traditional stories from around the world for many years now; some of my favourite are from Scotland having been brought up on them. However, I have come across stories from many lands that are wonderful.
I have told stories in schools, libraries, museums, festivals and abroad in various situations, and I am able to travel anywhere accessible by public transport.
My most recent project has been working with Confluence. We are group of storytellers and photographers who bring the two artforms together with people from around the world. Our first book Confluence brings together Celtic and Arabic storytellers and photographers.
